A parking garage would be built catering to vanlife visitors. It would have amenities for them and both short and long term parking pricing. The price would probably have to be kept a good bit lower than campgrounds, as their natural settings and added space offer added value.

To make use of the short domain I bought recently (macn.me), I came up with the concept of a business card-like intro landing page. Continue reading post "Short domain intro card"

This past night I worked on my taxes, a stressful endeavor. I am an independen…

In January, my former band The Yars released their first full album (they were all shorts or live while I was there). I've had a copy of it since then, but haven't imported it. I had heard the songs tons of times as Dwight was working on them, so was certainly burned out on them. I also don't entirely like the sound direction the songs have taken, and it's a little weird listening to another drummer play them. And it wasn't in the iTunes store, so they had no CDDB data. I wanted to wait for that. So I never got around to importing it.

Today I decided to. It's been in the iTunes store and other venues for months now. But still, there was no CDDB in the Gracenote database that iTunes uses. I could go to the store and see all the track info, but there was no way to get it to the album. But I found this article describing how you can copy store songs to a playlist, then use one of Doug's scripts to copy them to another set of songs. So I went to the iTunes store to copy them to a playlist. Unfortunately, the new fancy iTunes song playlist doesn't allow this to happen. The songs are like HTML elements on a page. And I had planned to boycott getting new versions of iTunes because they had cut off support for third party access. But just recently I think the very features that were now causing me trouble, plus the full new version number, had enticed me. I found the "Column Browser", which does have a Cocoa style list of the songs, but I searched every possible genre with no luck at finding the Yars.
